The door entry keypad on my 2016 Explorer has come free from the drivers door. I am using duct tape to hold it back on till I figure out how to reattach it. It still works.

Is there some sort of glue, or 2 sided tape I can purchase to reattach it?

Thanks ...george
 






I think someone awhile back said they used a thick bead of that black RTV

Hi George. This has happened before and it can create issues with the liftgate. Usually this happens when it detaches while driving and damages the wires. I don't know if this thread mentions any solution to reattaching it. Keyless entry (Securicode) pad comes off
